Never before in the short 100 year history of jazz had an institution been devoted to recreating the music from the past. Now with Wynton Marsalis at its head, Jazz at Lincoln Center is an established entity devoted to the preservation of the music, not unlike the classical division of Lincoln Center. This CD is a recording of a concert of the two big bands in 1994.

Recorded: 1990 Label: Columbia Comments: Wynton recorded a series of mellow, classically oriented jazz CD's that focused on the Great American Songbook. This CD showcases his father, Ellis, on piano. Ellis, the patriarch of the Marsalis family (which includes Branford on tenor sax, Delfeayo on trombone, Jason on drums, and of course, Wynton), teaches at a school in New Orleans and has played with all the greats over the years. His approach to the piano is even-handed, forthright, and swinging all the time...
